Question

A specific event has the probability of 3/4. What is the probability that this event will not occur?

1/4
3/4
1

Answer 1

its 1/4
you do 1-3/4 to get it

Answer 2

Answer: The correct option is (A)
`(1)/(4).`

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a specific event has the probability of
`(3)/(4)`.

we are to find the probability that the event will not occur.

Let the given event be represented by E.

Then, we have

`P(E)=(3)/(4).`

The probability that the event E will not occur is represented by P'(E) and is defined by

`P'(E)=1-P(E).`

Therefore, we get

`P'(E)=1-(3)/(4)=(4-3)/(4)=(1)/(4).`

Thus, the required probability is
`(1)/(4).`

Option (A) is CORRECT.
